Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 590

Chapter 590

Elliot bent down and gently kissed the top of Anastasia’s head. “I’ll make you some food.” Anastasia

finally released him. As he got out of bed, she spotted the nail marks on his back that were frankly quite

ghastly, so she turned around guiltily.

It was probably… thanks to her. At 12.30PM, Anastasia lazily pulled on a T-shirt and put her hair up in a

simple bun before heading downstairs. Her heart was filled with utter bliss when she saw her man

making lunch for her.

Seeing as how he was still hustling about in the kitchen, she decided to head over and hug him from

behind without saying a word. She simply squished her face against his back and followed him around

as he moved.

Elliot turned around and hugged her back before kissing her. “Let’s eat! I’m free today, so we can spend

the whole day together.”

“Shouldn’t we pick Jared up?” Anastasia blinked at him.

“Nigel canceled his business trip and Jared’s having a blast at his place, so he doesn’t want to come

back just yet. It’ll just be the two of us for the next three days.”

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously at him. Is that so? Is it Jared who doesn’t want to come back, or did

he convince Jared to stay away somehow?

Elliot could tell what she was thinking. He chuckled and said, “It’s really Jared who doesn’t want to come

back.”

Anastasia quirked her lips into a smile. Nigel did have a lot of cool games in his house, so it was rather

likely that Jared was reluctant to leave. She was about to move away, but something seemed to have

gotten into Elliot as he quickly bent down and caught her lips in his.

Their kisses grew heavier and heavier.

The cozy sunlight shone in through the tall glass windows and scattered all over

the living room. Everything was well with the world.

If there had not been a warm lunch waiting for them, Elliot might never have stopped kissing her.

After lunch, Elliot accompanied Anastasia on a walk. It was well and truly springtime now as the gentle

breeze carried the scent of grass, and the cerulean skies were clear without a speck of clouds. The

entire world seemed to come to life again.

At night, they headed to a nearby Dinner in the Sky restaurant. Elliot had made the arrangements in

advance, and they were the only customers in the entire establishment.

The soft and melodic music gave the place an air of romance.

There was a blanket of stars overhead and a beautiful candlelit table in front of them. The air hung with

the scent of alcohol and fragrance from the flower decor. As for the man in front of her, he was

breathtakingly handsome and he was

staring at her lovingly with his deep, soulful eyes.

The music seemed to be expressing a love that could not be described with mere words. The melody

tugged at the heart as it flitted cheerily from note to note, and somehow, it seemed to fit the journey that

they had taken in their path of love-from the day they first met to the present where they finally could be

in each other’s arms.

At 10.30PM, the couple went home and enjoyed a moment that was theirs alone. Anastasia bloomed like

a brilliant rose that captivated the heart and soul of Elliot, whose eyes never left her, not even for a single

moment.

“Mr. Presgrave, you should shower first,” Anastasia said to him.

“My water bill this month went up too much. Let’s not waste water, hmm? Let’s shower together,” he

suggested. In one swift motion, he carried her into the bathroom.

She snorted to herself. Blaming the water bill, huh? I could always just pay this month’s water bill.

However, this seemingly cold and reserved man became quite shameless in her presence.

In fact, thanks to her, he had become the master of romance and quite an expert at setting the mood.

Three days later, Jared dragged his feet as he exited Nigel’s house, but when he saw that his mommy

and daddy had come to pick him up, he became an overeager puppy again.

Nigel stared wistfully at the family of three, but he recalled how much he enjoyed singlehood too, so he

did not feel too envious.

Late that night, Anastasia jostled awake from sleep. She had subconsciously tried to hug the man who

was supposed to be in bed beside her, but the spot was empty.

She opened her eyes and saw no sign of Elliot anywhere, but after giving it a moment’s thought, she

figured out where he went.

Anastasia climbed out of bed and went to Jared’s room, and true enough, she saw him sitting on the

edge of Jared’s bed for what seemed like eternity.

The warm light cast a shadow on him on the floor and made him look like a statue

Anastasia felt a pang in her heart as she could empathize with how Elliot was feeling right now.
